Series Description: This series contains RaLa Run Reports written by E. J. Witkowski, Superintendent of Chemical Separations, to A. F. Rupp, Superintendent of the Isotope Development Department. The reports are in the form of five- to six-page memoranda that describe the RaLa process in general, RaLa procedures at Hanford and Los Alamos, problems with the RaLa process at ORNL, cost and economic surveys of the RaLa process, modifications to the 706-D building to meet Los Alamos's request for shipments of RaLa with high curie counts, trips to the other DOE facilities (LANL, INEL, Hanford), development of the RaLa-MTR process, and reports of individual RaLa runs.
